At SWWP, our Foam is ready to float your boat.
Working on the water can be challenging, but expanded polystyrene (EPS) can stand up to cool country lakes or the heartless high seas. Lightweight and impervious to leaking, EPS can be shaped and molded to fit the demand of boaters, surfers and marine construction companies.
Floating Docks
The marine environment can be tough: extreme temperatures, constant exposure to salt and water, and a demand for structures which can take a beating. If you’re building a floating dock, expanded polystyrene is an excellent choice. It’s 100% waterproof and if it’s punctured or damaged, your dock will continue to function. EPS is also environmentally friendly and its lightweight nature makes transport and assembly simple.
Since many areas now require EPS floatation devices to be encapsulated in plastic, Universal Foam also provides a full line of encapsulated float drums that install quickly and are extremely durable.
Surfboards
Universal Foam supplies many surfboard manufacturers with the latest in EPS technology. An EPS core guarantees excellent buoyancy, perfect balance, and can be shaped to accommodate the most demanding of wave riders. Available in different thicknesses, EPS blanks won’t absorb resin or water.
